    Abstract: A memory controller manages a refresh. The memory controller is configured to communicate with a memory device including a memory cell array that include of a plurality of word lines may include a scheduler configured to control commands provided to the plurality of word lines, an error correction code engine that has a register including N entries and is configured to store, in the register, a first parameter which includes address information and active number information of N word lines among the plurality of word lines based on counting the number of actives of the plurality of word lines, a comparator configured to compare the first parameter with a threshold parameter, and a refresh management (RFM) decision circuit configured to determine refresh frequency of the plurality of word lines based on results output from the comparator and to generate an RFM command.

    Abstract: Provided are a memory device for detecting a weakness of an operation pattern and a method of operating the same. The method includes: storing address information and activation count information regarding N word lines from among the plurality of word lines in a register including N entries; based on activation of a first word line different from the N word lines, storing address information and activation count information regarding the first word line in an entry from which information is evicted from among the N entries; and generating first weakness information based on a number of evictions performed on the register during a first period.

    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array including memory cell row, each of which includes volatile memory cells, a row hammer management circuit, a repair control circuit and a connection logic. The row hammer management circuit counts access addresses associated with the memory cell rows to store counting values, and determines a hammer address associated with least one of the memory cell rows, which is intensively accessed, based on the counting values. The repair control circuit includes repair controllers, each of which includes a defective address storage, and repairs a defective memory cell row among the memory cell rows. The connection logic connects first repair controllers, which are unused for storing defective addresses, among the plurality of repair controllers, to the row hammer management circuit. The row hammer management circuit uses the first repair controllers as a storage resource to store a portion of the access addresses.

    Abstract: A row hammer preventing circuitry including: a first table storing a count value representing a hit count and an address bit of multiple entries, each entry corresponding to access-requested target rows; a second table including safe bits and a safe bit counter; and a row hammer preventing logic to identify masking entries, on which a masking comparison is to be performed, among the entries on the basis of the safe bit counter, to determine a hit or miss on the basis of whether other bits except an MSB among address bits of an access-requested target row match other bits except an MSB among address bits of the masking entries, and to generate a control signal indicating an additional refresh on rows adjacent to rows corresponding to a masking entry whose hit count is greater than a threshold value.
